A Man from Maidenhead has launched a campaign to ensure a corner of the Internet remains "forever English", John Sewell is hoping to raise support for a new domain name that will allow the English to show off their Englishness.He is asking people to sign a petition for a new domain extension dot eng or .eng

John Sewell has setup a website www.doteng.org to collect signatures for the .eng petition and afterwards will deliver the signatures to ICANN.This is not the only campaign , the Scots have there own movement for .sco (www.dotsco.org) and Welsh have there .cym (www.dotcym.org) .

Sewell says .eng is about

"remembering what’s great about England – tea, the Beatles, London, the Queen, beer, cricket."

While a spokesman for ICANN said Sewell probably won’t even be able to start the application process until next year.
